Product Information
Dr. Amin Jaafari, an Arab-Israeli citizen, is a surgeon at a hospital in Tel Aviv. Dedicated to his work, respected and admired by his colleagues and community, he represents integration at its most successful. He has learned to live with the violence and chaos that plague his city, and on the night of a deadly bombing in a local restaurant, he works tirelessly to help the shocked and shattered patients brought to the emergency room. But this night of turmoil and death takes a horrifyingly personal turn. His wife's body is found among the dead, with massive injuries, the police coldly announce, typical of those found on the bodies of fundamentalist suicide bombers. As evidence mounts that his wife, Sihem, was responsible for the catastrophic bombing, Dr. Jaafari is torn between cherished memories of their years together and the inescapable realization that the beautiful, intelligent, thoroughly modern woman he loved had a life far removed from the comfortable, assimilated existence they shared. From the graphic, beautifully rendered description of the bombing that opens the novel to the searing conclusion, "The Attack" portrays the reality of terrorism and its incalculable spiritual costs. Intense and humane, devoid of political bias, hatred, and polemics, it probes deep inside the Muslim world and gives readers a profound understanding of what seems impossible to understand.

Reviews
"Here the inevitability of evil and the universality of human suffering are more than novelistic themes: they are History in all its excessive reality, tackled in writing that is never less than fully engaged." -Le Nouvel Observateur "The Attack, Yasmina Khadra's best book, is an urgent, must-read." -Paris Match "Khadra uses his materials with such mastery and emotional power that the reader is continuously propelled forward." -Le Point "The Attack is a mournful detonation at the end of this summer. To read it is to undermine your tranquility, and you can't tell whether the shiver that goes through you at the end is a sign of anguish or relief." -Le Figaro, "A genuine work of art...The Attackderives its force in large measure from never going off track as a novel, never slipping for a moment -- as it easily could -- into a fictional political tract. Every idea expressed, every action that takes place, is solidly grounded in character, in the complex, inconsistent and contradictory elements of human nature. Khadra neither demonizes nor offers any apology for the terrorists. He simply presents them as human beings who happen to be willing, even eager, to kill innocent people. By so doing, he places them squarely beyond the pale." --The Philadelphia Inquirer "Gripping and dynamic...The Attackis both a plea for peace and a rendering of the Palestinian frustration and fury that this well-heeled Arab-Israeli (Jaafari) once managed to ignore." --The New York Times "Khadra's best and most ambitious novel yet...An audaciously conceived and courageously important novel...Khadra has a mastery of plot that lends this story a propulsive, whodunit energy." --The Los Angeles Times "Powerful and engrossing...The Attackis a detective story sans detective, suffused with raging grief over what sectarian violence has made of the Islamic world." -Booklist "Here the inevitability of evil and the universality of human suffering are more than novelistic themes: they are History in all its excessive reality, tackled in writing that is never less than fully engaged." -Le Nouvel Observateur "The Attack, Yasmina Khadra's best book, is an urgent, must-read." -Paris Match "Khadra uses his materials with such mastery and emotional power that the reader is continuously propelled forward." -Le Point "The Attackis a mournful detonation at the end of this summer. To read it is to undermine your tranquility, and you can't tell whether the shiver that goes through you at the end is a sign of anguish or relief." -Le Figaro, "Khadra's best and most ambitious novel yet...An audaciously conceived and courageously important novel...Khadra has a mastery of plot that lends this story a propulsive, whodunit energy." The Los Angeles Times "A genuine work of art...The Attackderives its force in large measure from never going off track as a novel, never slipping for a momentsas it easily couldinto a fictional political tract.

The Philadelphia Inquirer "Gripping and dynamic...The Attackis both a plea for peace and a rendering of the Palestinian frustration and fury that this well-heeled Arab-Israeli (Jaafari) once managed to ignore." The New York Times "The Attackis a riveting and exciting novel. It's stunningly graphic in its depiction of the horrors of the bloody confrontation, of the brutality inherent in the sacrifices made forthe cause." Washington Times "The Attackderives its force in large measure from the never going off track as a novel, never slipping into a fictional political tract. Every idea expressed, every action that takes place, is solidly grounded in character, in the complex, inconsistent and contradictory elements of human nature…. [A] wonderfully humane book" Chicago Tribune "[I]n this novel, [Khadra], limns, quite brilliantly, the character of man torn to pieces by extremism and extreme social distress, neither of which has been of his own making" Washington Post "The Attackis a thoughtful and emotional dissection of the personal politics of the Palestinian-Israeli clash…. To the curious and observant mind...The Attackis an engaging glimpse into the kinds of stories we never hear on CNN" Time Out Chicago "At once a tale of supreme grief and disappointment,The Attackis also a meditation on the value of life, the guilt and confusion a killer leaves behind and the difficulty of living an apolitical life in a world torn apart by religious strife and separatism." USA Today "powerful and deft…" Detroit Free Press "Powerful and engrossing...The Attackis a detective story sans detective, suffused with raging grief over what sectarian violence has made of the Islamic world." Booklist "A magnificent novel, believable and moving" Literary Review "Evocative writing…thoughtful and affecting work" New Statesman, "Powerful and engrossing...The Attackis a detective story sans detective, suffused with raging grief over what sectarian violence has made of the Islamic world." -Booklist "Here the inevitability of evil and the universality of human suffering are more than novelistic themes: they are History in all its excessive reality, tackled in writing that is never less than fully engaged." -Le Nouvel Observateur "The Attack, Yasmina Khadra's best book, is an urgent, must-read." -Paris Match "Khadra uses his materials with such mastery and emotional power that the reader is continuously propelled forward." -Le Point "The Attackis a mournful detonation at the end of this summer.
